DESCRIPTION
This circuit is necessary for the ASL (Auto Sound Leveliser) built into the stereo component amplifier.
Speed signals are received from the combination meter and used for the ASL.
The ASL function automatically adjusts the sound data in order to enable hearing the clear audio sound even when vehicle noise increases (as vehicle noise increases, the volume is turned up etc.).

WIRING DIAGRAM
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 OPERATION OF SPEEDOMETER
OK: Actual vehicle speed and the speed indicated on the speedometer are the same.
HINT: The vehicle speed sensor is functioning normally when the indication on the speedometer is normal
2 INSPECT STEREO COMPONENT AMPLIFIER
OK: Voltage pulses as shown in the illustration.
REPLACE STEREO COMPONENT AMPLIFIER
3 CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - STEREO COMPONENT AMPLIFIER)
Standard resistance
4 CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - STEREO COMPONENT AMPLIFIER)
Standard resistance
HINT: If the resistance between terminal SPD and body ground is less than 10 kΩ, there may be a short in a wire harness, connector, or an ECU that is connected to the SPD signal wire
REPLACE COMBINATION METER
High beam automatic turning on or off conditions
When all of the following conditions are fulfilled, high beam will be
automatically turned on (after approximately 1 second):
Vehicle speed is above approximately 20 mph (32 km/h).
The area ahead of the vehicle is dark.
There are no oncoming or preceding vehicles with headlights or
tail

ECM / PCM Processor
DESCRIPTION
The ECM continuously monitors its internal processors (CPUs), A/F sensor
transistors and heated oxygen
sensor (HO2S) transistors. This self-check ensures that the ECM is functioning
properly. These are
diagnosed by internal "mirroring" of the main and sub CPUs to det ...
